Chapter 400 The world is just so coincidental

The maid Xiaoqi's eyes were filled with tears. She quickly wiped away her tears and smiled at Li Chunhua: "My injuries are not serious. If it weren't for Madam's help and your words for my wife yesterday, how could we be able to recover peacefully today?"

Xiaoqi's gratitude was sincere, and Li Chunhua smiled a little embarrassedly.

An Ningxin sat leaning on the thick pillow. Although her face was still very pale, her expression was much more relaxed than yesterday.

Li Chunhua felt relieved after seeing this.

She is an enthusiastic person by nature, and now she is concerned about An Ningxin's future plans.

"I plan to rent a small house near the outskirts of the city," An Ningxin said, her face still pale, but her hoarse voice was somewhat gentle, "I will raise some silkworms in the yard, and I will do some embroidery work on weekdays. I will definitely be able to support Hao Ge'er."

The maid Xiaoqi hurriedly said, "Madam, my needlework is also very good. I will do embroidery with you when the time comes."

An Ningxin smiled and nodded gently.

Xing Xing on the side couldn't help but glance at the little girl sitting in the corner.

The girl looked about five years old, with a white gauze wrapped around her head and a pale face. The little girl sat there quietly, her eyes like black grapes, and she never said a word.

Qin Anbo had previously said something like "How are you going to survive with two children?" He was obviously referring to this little girl who looked about four or five years old and Hao Ge'er.

But when Qin Anbo and An Ningxin mentioned their children indirectly, they only mentioned Hao Ge'er.

Xingxing didn’t see the little girl yesterday and hasn’t thought about it carefully yet.

Today, Xingxing met this little girl. The little girl's eyes looked very similar to An Ningxin's. It was obvious at first glance that she was An Ningxin's child.

So, that means... this little girl might be An Ningxin's previous child with someone else?

Xing Xing didn't think about it anymore. She just felt that the injured little girl was huddled quietly in the corner, not making any noise or trouble. There was a hint of longing in her eyes when she looked at An Ningxin, which made her feel a little sad.

Li Chunhua chatted with An Ningxin for a while, and seeing that An Ningxin was in much better condition, she stood up and said goodbye.

Li Chunhua also told An Ningxin that if she encountered any difficulties, she should go to the Zhenxi General's Mansion to find her.

An Ningxin agreed with tears in her eyes.

It was such a coincidence in the world that no one would have thought that Xingxing and An Ningxin would meet again a few days later.

But it was in Fan Pingfang's courtyard.

Since Fan Pingfang brought Ling Jie'er and the Yu family to the capital, they found a small courtyard to rent.

The yard was located in a small alley, very quiet and beautifully decorated.

At that time, an old couple lived alone in this small courtyard. Their children were all away, so the courtyard was deserted and empty. So the old couple cleaned up a few rooms on the west side of the courtyard and rented them out.

Fan Pingfang was very satisfied with the environment around the alley at that time. In addition, with the simple old couple living there, it was much safer than living alone in a small courtyard as an orphan and a widow.

Fan Pingfang then assembled the houses on the west side of the courtyard.

These days, Fan Pingfang had a very good relationship with the old couple. On weekdays, when Fan Pingfang went out, she would leave the maids and old women at home to take care of Ling Jie'er, and the simple old couple would often lend a hand.

The old woman was very clever and made a rabbit fur hat and deerskin boots for Lingjie, dressing her up like a doll in a New Year painting. The old man also liked Lingjie very much and built a small swing for her in the yard.

At that time, Xingxing came to play with Fan Pingfang and Ling Jie'er. Seeing these, she felt relieved and happy.

Unexpectedly, the old couple's son who was out of town had an accident. The old couple had to hurriedly deal with their business in Beijing, rush to other places to prepare to collect their son's body, and then take their son back to their hometown for burial, and never return to Beijing again.

The old couple seemed to have aged ten years overnight, and all they wanted was to sell all their properties in Beijing as quickly as possible.

Fan Pingfang hesitated for a moment, but decided to buy this comfortable little courtyard from the old couple.

Just because of this purchase, Fan Pingfang had much less money to use.

After some hesitation, Fan Pingfang thought about trying to rent out the east house where the old couple had lived before to supplement their household expenses.

Just as we started renting out the place, we happened to meet An Ningxin and a few others who were looking for a place to rent right after they came out of the clinic.

At that time, neither party knew that the other had some connection with the Yu family. They just felt that they were both nice after meeting each other, and both brought their children. Ling Jie'er and Hao Ge'er were about the same age, so they could get along well. So the matter of renting a house was settled.

The old couple were both clean people, so they could use all the furniture and bedding that had been left behind. An Ningxin and her family paid half a year's rent and moved in directly.

Coincidentally, just as An Ningxin and her friends moved in, Xingxing brought Xu Ge'er, who had just turned three, to play with Ling Jie'er.

Xu Ge'er and Ling Jie'er are not much different in age, and the two little guys can play together.

This time, Xu Ge'er ran into the half-open yard before Xing Xing, and saw Hao Ge'er and Ling Jie'er making a snowman in the yard.

Xu Ge'er was stunned, exclaimed "Ah", and asked curiously: "Who is this?"

Xing Xing also walked into the courtyard at this time. She was also stunned when she saw Hao Ge'er and said, "Huh?" "Hao Ge'er? Why are you here?"

Xiaoqi, who was watching the two children playing, was surprised and delighted: "Miss Yu! Why are you here?"

Probably hearing the noise outside, Fan Pingfang and An Ningxin, who were doing needlework together in the room, came out.

All of a sudden, people from both sides realized that they were so closely connected and that they all had a connection to the Yu family.

An Ningxin's face was still a little pale, but after taking care of herself for the past few days, it finally regained some color. She smiled and said, "It seems that God still cares for us mother and daughter."

After hearing about An Ningxin's situation, Fan Pingfang felt extremely distressed. She just held An Ningxin's hand and said, "Let's raise a dog in the yard later. If that guy dares to harass you in the future, we will let the dog bite him!"

Everyone laughed.

Xu'er, Hao'er and Ling'er were already playing together on the sofa.

Xingxing brought some pastries that her aunt had made herself. She had originally intended to give them to Lingjie, so most of them were made with milk.

Fan Pingfang was quick and efficient and helped distribute cakes to the children.

She took a piece for Xu Ge'er, Hao Ge'er, and Ling Jie'er. Looking back, she saw a girl from An Ningxin's family standing far away in the corner, looking lonely.

"Sister Cheng, come and eat too."

Fan Pingfang greeted them warmly, "Mrs. Li's cooking skills are excellent. This cake is quite different from those on the market. It's delicious."

The little girl froze all over, not knowing where to put her hands and feet.
